2012 One Little Word || April

The class prompt for April was to write yourself a little note- a note that includes where you are right now and where you hope/plan/envision yourself one year from now.

The now of my note, at this point, is I’m questioning whether or not my focus should be on a lack of balance in my life or having unrealistic expectations of myself. Trying to do too much. The where I hope to be one year from now is about having figured out whether it’s the lack of balance or trying to do to much [or maybe even a little of both] and having made changes. If it’s really a case of trying to do too much I will decide what is most important and let go of the rest. Not only that, I will let go of the rest without feeling like I’ve failed. Too much to ask for by the end of the year? My now also reminds myself of how I felt during a recent trip to Florida. Basically, my one and only expectation was to run a half marathon Sunday morning. No computer, blogging, workouts, work, menu to plan, creative projects or house to clean. It was a feeling of total relief and relaxation.

Self portrait. Me. Right now.

Letter to myself. I used a page and a half for right now you are…

Letter continued. Page 3 of the letter to myself is the one year from now you’ll be...

I remember about this time I thought my word for 2011 Embrace [who I am] felt elusive and almost unattainable. So, I’m optimistic that the unattainable feeling and questioning of my word right now is temporary. With time, and maybe a few changes, I will begin to feel the success and change I experienced with OLW last year.

How is it going so far with your word? Does it feel like you made the right choice? If you’ve participated in OLW in the past, how does this year’s word compare to previous words?

Here is a complete list of blogs participating in today’s blog hop! (Note: the blog hop will go live by all participants no later than 8 AM PST (Pacific Standard Time). Allow for adjustments in time zones.
